Sounds like you are on the right track. The problem should be between M2 and where the wiring splits to the individual lamps.

It helps that I've been working on car electrical systems for 6 years but unfortunately I just ****** up my back so I can't do that now. Luckily I now work at a dealership and one of my friends works the service department so he's gonna check it out for me

Sorry to hear about your back. I can tell you from experience that pushing to get back into a normal routine can end up doing more harm. Glad to hear you have some help. Once y'all figure out where the wires are routed, narrowing down where the bad spot is should be pretty easy.

My friend said with the info that I supplied him, it'll probably take him 30 minutes to take care of.

And ******* up my back had nothing to with working on my car, It had more to do with moving a ******* stove by myself from the shed into the house

Might not take him that long. Fixing it may be the hard part (but it could just be a connector that needs to be reseated).

I was just saying take it easy until your back is completely healed. Digging through car wiring is not taking it easy on your back. Good luck with your recovery.
